I grabbed this rocket because I had the money left over and always love more kits to build and fly.
This rocket is reminiscent of the Mosquito and the Sputnik with an 18mm motor and then dowels added to the fins like Sputik. It has balsa fins and nose cone and recovers like a helicopter.

Performance was like a Mosquito. Vanishing off the pad.
This would be fun to fly on an Apogee D3.
Package Instructions : Normal (very little steps 4 total)
Look and Finish : Normal Finish Intriguing Design
Performance : Normal (as expected Mosquito like)
